 | Comments: |
Note: The trail names listed above are as I understand them. There is some inconsistency in how Gilmanton Conservation Commission refers to the trails, the signage does not indicate names, and the property map on the town website (which does have names) is not current.
I took another spin through here now that GCC has completed the trail system. Great work! The view from East Peak has been cleared and it's nice. They will be holding an event here on 10/28/2023 to celebrate the accomplishment. The public is invited to explore the trails. |
